Excerpt and Giveaway: The Perfect Whore by Josephine Myles

Today I am so pleased to welcome Josephine Myles to Joyfully Jay. Josephine has come to share an exclusive excerpt from her release, The Perfect Whore (Storm & Lightning book 1). She has also brought along a great giveaway. Please join me in giving her a big welcome!

Excerpt

They dodged through the foot traffic and the hovercars, and then into another alleyway. The rest of their journey was relatively uneventful, and after a long half hour under the blazing sun, Jedd finally spotted the junkyard gates.

“Here we go. Nearly there.”

“Nice address, Captain. You sure know how to spoil me.”

“Shut up. At least here no one’s going to be selling your arse to every scumbucket with a big enough wad of cash.”

That shut Storm up for a while, until Jedd pointed out Bluebird between the decaying hulks.

“There she is. You won’t find a sweeter ride this side of Andromeda.” Shame she didn’t look up to much right now, but if you wanted to travel incognito, it made sense to be unmemorably shabby.

“Is she really spaceworthy?”

“Not at the moment,” Jedd snapped, “but she’s getting there. Had a bit of a run-in with an asteroid last time we were out of atmos.”

“Looks like the asteroid won.”

“Nah, we smashed it to smithereens.” But Bluebird had sustained considerable cosmetic damage, and the airlock seal around the cockpit had been compromised. New windows would cost him a huge sum and he could have just sealed over them with plascrete, but that would have left them flying in the dark and Jedd wasn’t willing to go space hopping with only a viewscreen to rely on. Technology had a way of giving up when you most needed it. He only trusted his own two eyes when airborne.

“Hell yes, baby. What did you think, I made that all up for shits and giggles?”

“Twins help me,” Storm muttered, but he sounded kind of excited rather than disappointed, Jedd thought. Storm refrained from further comments as Jedd opened the hatch and ushered him in.

He looked back around the deserted yard. He didn’t think they’d been followed, but it never hurt to be vigilant. He didn’t spot anyone lurking, although there were a thousand potential hiding places. He’d leave the external sensors on tonight anyway, just in case.

Jedd closed the hatch and watched the pressure seal hiss back into place.

And then it was just the two of them. Alone behind closed doors.

“So, do you want the grand tour?”

“I thought we could take it after.” Storm stepped right up into Jedd’s space, crowding him against the bulkhead.

Nice. Jedd liked a man who knew what he wanted. Particularly when what he wanted was Jedd. “After what, exactly?”

“After I show you just why I’m the sweetest ride this side of Andromeda.”

“Yeaaah.” Jedd’s body moved on autopilot while his mind filled with images of Storm spread wide for him. “Prepare to be shafted within an inch of your life.”

Storm’s breath huffed out against Jedd’s neck in what sounded suspiciously like a laugh. “And what makes you think I’m going to let you top me?”

“Because you’re my ultimate sexual fantasy made flesh?”

Storm’s wicked grin did fluttery, unsettling things to Jedd’s insides. “I might look like your ultimate fantasy, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to act like it, Captain Hard-on. I’ve spent years bending over as everyone else’s ideal fuck. Finally, I’ve got a chance to have sex on my own terms. What I want, not what you’ve paid for. And what I want right now is to top.”

“And what if I’m not up for that?” Jedd’s butt muscles clenched. He always topped. He’d tried bottoming back when he first moved to the city, but he’d quickly decided it hurt too much for his liking. “I always top,” he insisted, his voice sounding less certain than he’d like. It didn’t help that Storm was licking his way up Jedd’s neck, setting all his nerves on fire.

Molten want flooded his body as he ground himself against Storm. Maybe it was the bump to his head messing with his thinking, but would it be so awful to give in, just this once?

Being the object of everyone’s sexual fantasies ain’t all it’s cracked up to be…

On a mining colony planet a long way from Earth, bandit Jedd Lightning dreams of making enough money to get his ship spaceworthy again. During a robbery at a high-class brothel, he meets gorgeous alien rentboy Storm and is instantly smitten—but the heist goes south and Jedd has to high-tail it out of there with only half the loot.

Enslaved by a fierce Madam, Storm’s shapeshifting talents make him the most sought after whore on Talmak. He literally can’t stop himself becoming his client’s fantasy lover. Sick of enforced transformations, he wants to escape, but he’s closely guarded and has no experience of the unfamiliar city outside the brothel.

Storm is willing—and eager—to do anything to persuade Jedd to break him out of his gilded prison. Lucky for him the arrogant outlaw needs Storm’s help to free his crewmate, held as hostage by a vicious mob boss who wants Jedd to complete the theft he was hired for. Storm keeps blowing away Jedd’s expectations—but with both the law and the mob against them, they could end up with nowhere left to run.

Bio

English through and through, Josephine Myles is addicted to tea and busy cultivating a reputation for eccentricity. She writes gay erotica and romance, but finds the erotica keeps cuddling up to the romance, and the romance keeps corrupting the erotica. Jo blames her rebellious muse but he never listens to her anyway, no matter how much she threatens him with a big stick. She’s beginning to suspect he enjoys it.

Jo’s novel Stuff won the 2014 Rainbow Award for Best Bisexual Romance, and her novella Merry Gentlemen won the 2014 Rainbow Award for Best Gay Romantic Comedy. She loves to be busy, and is currently having fun trying to work out how she is going to fit in her love of writing, dressmaking and attending cabaret shows in fabulous clothing around the demands of a preteen with special needs, an incessantly curious pre-schooler, and a bun in the oven!
